        AN INVITATION TO VISIT THE COURTROOM OF THE FUTURE


        On Sunday, October 1, 1995, Judge Cara Lee Neville, Chair of the
ABA Criminal Justice Section, will lead a delegation of
interested persons in a visit to the "Courtroom of the Future" at the
Williams and Mary Law School in Williamsburg, Virginia.  The Courtroom
demonstration will begin at 1:30 p.m.  It will take approximately two hours.


        The Courtroom of the Future is a unique project that illustrates
emerging technology that is currently available, and soon-to-be available
for courtroom use.  Some of the technology demonstrations include remote
video conferencing for remote witness testimony, lawyer directed
presentation technology, remote arraignment, and elements of the court
record.


        For further information and to reserve a space as one of the
participants, please phone Susan Hillenbrand at the ABA/CJS Section staff
office (202-662-1503).
